We’re Back!

Some dickweeds hacked our site. And our web host was, shall we say, less than speedy in allowing us to resolve the situation. But we’re back to fulfill all of your MST3k info needs!

    Glad to see you back! I was starting to go into withdrawal. It wasn’t fun. Think Frank’s jacket with the dt’s.

    @Steelhawk

    So was I! That was rough. Also, why wouldn’t the host let you guys fix it right away? Did they not believe you? ?:-)

    I find it extremely odd that of all the websites in the cyberverse, they picked this one. And do you have any idea who “they” are?

    Thank goodness you guys are back! I was beginning to think you became an archived site. (perish the thought!) I had to watch “The Touch of Stan” (I mean Satan) twice to get over my fright!

    I think it might have been Bob Evil, from Time Chasers. He’s a pretty nasty guy.

    So glad that’s over! I was all messed up, I kept saying to my wife ” Whats this mean?” when I tried
    to get on this site. I look at it everyday and thought this can’t be the end of my favorite site.
    I kept trying to check and see if was gone for good.

    Whew!

    Word on the street is that Sam Casey, Adam Chance, Bryan Cooper, and Bart Fargo all teamed up to save Satellite News from Ultimate Obliteration.

    Which is why it took so long …

  19. No offense, but who hacks a fan site dedicated to a TV that hasn’t made a new episode in 15 years? Put on your big boy pants, hackers, and go after an actual site visited by millions, such as SideHackersRules . com.

    A day without a visit here is like a day without Florida sunshine.

    Glad you are back (only by visiting Rifftrax and seeing a discussion thread about this forum being down calmed me — thought perhaps things weren’t ever going to be right again).

    Glad that Sampo and friends are back in action.

    I blame Krankor. He never forgave MST3K for comparing him to a chicken. Cluck!

    OUR LONG NATIONAL NIGHTMARE IS OVER!!!!!!!! :D

    WHEW! Well, my heart can officially start beating again! If you ask me, Joe Don, Susan Heart, and Jeff Lieberman (The Triumvirate Anti-MSTie Evil) are behind this…

    You’ll have to try harder than that, dickweeds!

    The return of this site makes it a great Turkey Day. If only Rowsdower hadn’t passed out in front of the TV during the Roughriders game, it would have been the best ever.

    I was starting to wonder if maybe somebody had saved Edith Keeler again, resulting in the Nazis winning WWII and MST3K and Satellite News not existing.

    But, things are OK again. Welcome back!

    Don’t you know you’re supposed to keep fresh AA’s in your agonizer at all times?
    Oh, and as usual, the agony booth’s out of order… you can call those service people and they’ll be around in, oh, December…

  43. My apologies. It’s all my fault. I am a dickweed magnet. The hackers followed me here from the Electra Woman and Dyna Girl forum.

    For I am Luther Heggs aka Number 6 . . . King of Dickweeds.

    Episode 904 has been looping non-stop since the site went down.

    I rely on this date in MSTory to determine which episode to watch! I didn’t have any instruction on what to change it to.

    It looks like today is Master Ninja!

    It seemed like you had entered a fifth dimension beyond that which is known to man. It was a dimension as vast as space and as timeless as infinity. It was the middle ground between light and shadow, between science and superstition, and it lay between the pit of man’s fears and the summit of his knowledge. It was the dimension of imagination. It was an area which some had begun to call The MST3K is Missing Zone.
